From The Art & Science of Real Magic

Introduction

"There are two mistakes one can make along the road to Truth – not going all the way, and not starting."
~ Buddha

    When I discovered the Law of Attraction back in 2006, I was thrilled. This mystical “law” promised to make all my dreams come true if I only learned how to use it. Excited about the possibilities, I started studying it, even though I was a little skeptical. It seemed too simple, too good to be true. But I really wanted it to work, as I was struggling with many personal challenges at the time.
​
   My newly acquired knowledge was soon put into practice and tested in the laboratory of my life. Increased confidence and a more positive outlook on life came to me very quickly, and I felt happier than I did in a long time, anticipating all my desires to manifest with little effort on my part. And although I was able to achieve some positive results, shortly after I encountered a huge disappointment. I found myself facing one of the most significant “problems” I ever experienced, and I just couldn’t take responsibility for its creation. It made no sense. This should not have happened according to what I’ve learned, or at least, according to the way I understood it.

   My skeptical mind started questioning this “law” and doubting everything I have ever read or heard on the subject. Soon, my newly established belief system crumbled under the weight of harsh “facts,” as it was not grounded in the Truth – as I learned later – and my understanding of how Reality worked was somewhat superficial. I felt betrayed by God, The Cosmic Mind, The Universe. Since I had no support on this matter at that early stage of my journey, I fell into the Dark Night of the Soul, hopeless and confused. This lasted five extremely challenging years.

   But it was this pain of utter despair that forced me to look deeper for answers. I turned to meditation and mindfulness. From Buddhist teachers I learned to surrender; from Eckhart Tolle, I learned to live in the NOW. While these gave me some comfort over the next few years, I never felt truly satisfied, as I knew I wasn’t actively participating in the unfoldment of my destiny and hence not being true to myself. I knew deep in my heart that I was a powerful creator and yet my earlier disappointment and my natural skepticism made me wary of any teaching about manifestation.

   I wanted to know the Truth. In fact, I had to know it. So, I started to explore once again. Having no mentor, I trusted my intuition to guide me through the maze of information sources. I read any book and listened to any teacher that potentially could offer the key to uncovering the mysteries of existence. I explored psychology, meditation, energy healing, psi phenomena and alternative sources of information on history, extraterrestrial civilizations, “conspiracy theories,” and many other subjects. I also became interested in cutting-edge science and the discoveries it made that could shine light on the true nature of Reality. Having grown up in a family with primarily atheistic views, where science was trusted to provide the answers, this was important to satisfy my inner skeptic.

   After studying several Unified Physics models (physics that combine Quantum Field Theory and Theory of Relativity) for several years, while simultaneously reading books on Mental Science and New Thought philosophy that inner skeptic was permanently silenced. I was amazed yet not surprised to realize that these two seemingly opposing methods of inquiry were describing exactly the same Intelligent Universe.

   This was not a coincidence. It was the Truth – the Truth about Reality. I finally started finding my answers; one by one all the pieces of the puzzle were falling into their places, and they fit together perfectly! And when I not only understood but embodied this knowledge and started to live from it every day by applying the powerful tools for transformation (discussed in this book), things began to change in unimaginable ways. But I knew that what was happening was not only possible but perfectly normal once we understood the nature of Reality and the power of our subconscious mind. My life in all its expressions began to unfold in the most beautiful ways. I have no other words to describe this experience but Real Magic.

   This is what I’ve learned from my experience – we are all magicians, and our subconscious mind is our magic wand. In this book we will see how understanding the Universal principles of creation and learning how to masterfully apply them in our daily affairs will enable us to create Real Magic. Real Magic is our natural superhuman ability to manifest miracles in our lives by the virtue of using our innate creative power that is locked in our subconscious mind – our share of the Universal Mind.

   Uncovering the secrets of the Universe can be a daunting task. In an effort to simplify this endeavor I divided this work into three parts. In Part One we will look at why and how Real Magic works. For this, we will have to dive deeper into the structure and dynamics of spacetime and learn how the mystical activity of the Spirit gives birth to the material Universe and everything in it. We will see how different
mystics, philosophers and scientists described the same One Mind, Infinite Intelligence, or God, despite the different verbiage they used. We will discover the answers to questions: What is Reality made of? How is everything connected? Did life appear as a result of random events or was it intelligently created? What is our place as humans in the Universe, and do we create our reality? I will juxtapose ideas from the greatest mental and spiritual scientists and most recent findings in unified physics, to show how the same phenomena can be viewed from different perspectives, with both being accurate and valuable.

   In Part Two we will learn powerful ways to implement this understanding in our daily activities to live in alignment with the Absolute Truth and the Universal principles of creation and expansion. We will reveal the hidden powers of our subconscious mind and see how it is our most important manifestation tool. I will provide practical techniques discovered and developed by experts in the fields of spiritual and personal development, that anyone can use to start creating their own Magical Life today.

   In Part Three explanations will be offered for the reasons why this Magic may not appear to work sometimes and how we can avoid getting in our own way to success. The Universal Law is an unfailing law. The ability to use this Law is often considered a supernatural power, yet when we truly grasp the way it works, we realize this is the most natural way to be in life.
